Bent Iron work - including elementry art metal work

This appeared in 1903 – four years before Hasluck’s “Metal Working” described elsewhere in this list. Some of this material is included in “Metal Working”, but you get much more. Consider bent iron work. You don’t need heat, but you do need a bench anvil, hammers, pliers, and other sturdy tools to turn iron strap into fancy lamp brackets, candlestick brackets, grills, fire screens and much more. Fastening is done with simple clamps and rivets. Chapters include tools and materials; bending and working strip iron; simple exercises in bent iron. And the projects he shows are British! You’ll see drawings of grills and screens from Winchester and Chichester Cathedrals, and Westminster Abbey. Classic, beautiful stuff. Profusely illustrated. 160 pages.
